Pavement Surface Properties Consortium: A Research Program

The objective of the proposed pool fund is to establish a research program focused on enhancing the level of service provided by the roadway transportation system through optimized pavement surface texture characteristics. The initial focus of the program will be the application of inertial and laser-based equipment for measuring these properties Other questions and issues will be identified in cooperation with the pool fund participants. An interactive project solicitation process will be used to request feedback from all participants.
